STORY
Wolfof Vancouver was bought for €130,000 at the 2019 Goffs Orby Yearling Sale in Ireland.
A strong, fast-looking colt. He made his debut on Swedish Derby Day 2020, winning by a head from Reunion Island.
He followed by finishing a short neck second to that same rival in the Lambada Cup, seemingly finding the 1200m too short.He won easily over a mile while carrying top weight on 11 October, followed with a runner up performance in the Skånelandlöpning to end his 2yo campaign with 2 wins and 2 seconds from 4 starts.
Wolfof Vancouver was honored with the Champion 2YO of 2020 title in Sweden.
Wolfof Vancouver won the 2021 edition of the €100,000 Voter and Hurccinanelöpning at Jägersro and finished 2nd in the Swedish Derby – by the smallest of margins.
He came back for his 4yo campaign finishing 2nd in the Listed ITM Spring Mile at Jägersro, and subsequently 3rd in the Listed Pramms Memorial, before he reversed the from from the latter race to secure the 1.000.000 SEK Valley Chapel Memorial on Swedish Derby Day on July 17.
